These have been around for a long while now.

In my (possibly faulty) memory, these predate debian's existence, let alone
the current debian stable. I just checked with the oldest c++ compiler I
have access to (gcc 2.95.2); it handles 'and' in place of '&&' just fine.
What it probably wouldn't like is 'and' in a .c (not .cpp) file. Is that
maybe what happened here? I lost track of where the original error occurred.
